Ta da! Finally done with this piece. The key are the Bali vermeil beads, perhaps because they have so many kinds.Labels: apatite, bali, bracelet, jade, multistrand, pearls, pics, vermeil

Jade and pearl necklace and bracelet pics

Not the best quality pics, I took them just now. In the first pic if you look closely, the pearls have this eerie halo of light (at first I thought it was lint!). And the bracelet clasp is much prettier in real life. Oh well, just to give you an idea of the finished pieces.Labels: apatite, bali, bracelet, jade, multistrand, necklace, pearls, pics, vermeil

Jade necklace: then and now

Sort of, anyway. There was an interim version, with peridot nuggets...and the one on the right, I'm not 100% sure about yet. I was one rondelle short of putting five rondelles at the ends, instead of four...I'm debating whether or not to get more rondelles anyway (it's a beautiful jade). If I do, I would probably go ahead and make it five.
The original is dated August of last year; the one on the right was done yesterday. Same jade beads, I just cut apart the original and reused them.Labels: crystal, earrings, jade, labradorite, necklace, pearls, pics, quartz, vermeil, wire wrapping

Jade and pearl bracelet

As you can see, I didn't bother stringing the third strand. I did the first strand to check the length...the second strand to see if the bead size would work with the spacer bars. When it's finished, it will have the infamous "wire guardians," plus of course some goldfilled crimp covers. I'll also likely migrate the deepest-colored jade beads to the ends of the bracelet, since the stone in the clasp is a deep green color.Labels: apatite, bali, bracelet, jade, multistrand, pearls, pics, vermeil
